Step-by-Step Guide
What Should You Do After an Accident in Security-Widefield?
- 1
Call 911 and Report the Accident
In Colorado, you are legally required to report accidents involving injury, death, or significant property damage. Call 911 from the scene in Security-Widefield and request both police and medical assistance.
- 2
Seek Immediate Medical Attention
Go to a hospital or urgent care — even if you feel fine. Many injuries like whiplash, concussions, and internal bleeding don't show symptoms immediately. Nearby hospitals include Evans Army Community Hospital (Fort Carson).
- 3
Document Everything at the Scene
Take photos and videos of all vehicles, injuries, road conditions, traffic signals, and skid marks. Get names, phone numbers, and insurance information from all parties and witnesses.
- 4
Do Not Speak to Insurance Adjusters Without an Attorney
Insurance companies will contact you quickly — often within 24 hours. Their goal is to get a recorded statement they can use against you and to offer a lowball settlement before you understand your claim's true value.
- 5
Contact a Personal Injury Attorney Immediately
Colorado's statute of limitations is 3 years (Colo. Rev. Stat. § 13-80-102). However, critical evidence — surveillance footage, witness memories, vehicle data — degrades rapidly. The sooner you call Bond Legal at (866) 423-7724, the stronger your case.
- 6
Keep All Medical Records and Bills
Every doctor visit, prescription, therapy session, and medical bill becomes evidence of your damages. Keep a daily journal documenting your pain levels, limitations, and emotional impact.
Colorado Law
How Does Colorado Personal Injury Law Work?
Modified Comparative Fault (50% Bar)
Source: Colo. Rev. Stat. § 13-21-111
Colorado uses a 50% bar — you can recover only if your fault is 49% or less. If you are found 50% or more at fault, you recover nothing.
Statute of Limitations: 3 years
Source: Colo. Rev. Stat. § 13-80-102
In Colorado, you generally have 3 years from the date of your injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. Missing this deadline typically bars you from recovering any compensation. There are limited exceptions for minors, discovery of latent injuries, and government claims — consult an attorney immediately.
Damage Caps
Non-economic damages capped at approximately $642,180 (adjusted for inflation per Colo. Rev. Stat. § 13-21-102.5). No cap on economic damages. The cap can be exceeded if the court finds clear and convincing evidence justifying a higher award.
Key Colorado Laws Affecting Your Case
Modified Comparative Fault (50% Bar)
Colo. Rev. Stat. § 13-21-111
Colorado follows a stricter 50% bar (not 51%) — if you are found 50% or more at fault, you recover nothing. This is more restrictive than most modified comparative fault states that use a 51% threshold. Fault allocation is determined by the jury.
Non-Economic Damage Cap
Colo. Rev. Stat. § 13-21-102.5
Non-economic damages (pain and suffering, emotional distress) are capped at approximately $642,180 (adjusted for inflation). The cap can be exceeded only if the court finds clear and convincing evidence that the damages exceed the cap. No cap on economic damages (medical bills, lost wages, future care).
Dual Statute of Limitations
Colo. Rev. Stat. § 13-80-101 / § 13-80-102
Colorado has a 3-year statute of limitations for motor vehicle accidents (§ 13-80-101) but only 2 years for general personal injury claims (§ 13-80-102). Wrongful death claims have a 2-year deadline from date of death. Missing these deadlines permanently bars your claim.
Mandatory Auto Insurance
Colo. Rev. Stat. § 42-7-103
Colorado requires minimum liability coverage of 25/50/15 ($25,000 per person, $50,000 per accident bodily injury, $15,000 property damage). UM/UIM coverage is not mandatory but strongly recommended given the state's 11.3% uninsured driver rate.
Express Consent Law (DUI)
Colo. Rev. Stat. § 42-4-1301.1
Colorado's Express Consent Law means that by driving on Colorado roads, you consent to chemical testing if an officer has probable cause. Refusal results in automatic license revocation. DUI with BAC .08+ or DWAI with BAC .05-.079 — both carry criminal penalties and strengthen civil injury claims.
Premises Liability Act
Colo. Rev. Stat. § 13-21-115
Colorado's Premises Liability Act classifies entrants as invitees, licensees, or trespassers, with varying duties of care. Landowners owe the highest duty to invitees (business visitors) and lower duties to trespassers. This statute governs slip-and-fall and property injury claims.
